Who is the best American heavyweight hope now?

[Evil Abed]

We still got these guys.

Mike Tyson

Everyone keeps mentioning power, Chambers never landed on Wlad's chin. Chamber's simply could not reach Wlad, and Wlad illegally pushing off with his left hand wasn't helping the situation.

one of these days someone should just throw an uppercut right under wlads extended elbow when he pushes off and measures with his left like that.

[SplitSecond]

you overestimate haye's power

did you see how haye tagged valuev in the 12th? start off with an overhand right flow with the punch(duck under) and come back up with a left chin checker

wlad is open to the exact same combo, except haye wont have to reach as much as he did against nikolai

[The Hammer]

Chambers is the best American heavyweight, Wilder and Hamer are there best prospects but there years off.

I've seen a couple of Tor Hamer fights, and he's not very good.

Deontay Wilder has talent and great potential though. He needs to stop fighting low-level clubfighters and fight decent journeymen, or he won't improve.

I saw.

Have you seen how many guys have landed flush on ruiz, that were bigger punchers than haye?


even seen ruiz hurt? you act like haye's gonna hit ruiz and ruiz is gonna curl up like a little baby...

[J.R]

Arreola is probably the toughest of the lot, but is he actually American?

when you've got speed, all you need is a little power to chicken leg someone

roy jones proved that against ruiz, you could'nt brace yourself and the punch becomes a shock to your system
watch haye counter ruiz with big overhand rights all night

Sadly I think Deontay Wilder is America's next decent chance at a heavyweight title, that is unless the Klits retire, and with almost no amateur background he's still 4-5 years away from being ready.

I'm also curious about George "Monk" Foreman III... at 6'5" and the son of a legendary American heavyweight, it's hard not to have high hopes for the guy. But he had zero amateur career and got a late start as a professional, so he's a longshot at becoming a legitimate contender period, and if he eventually does get there it won't be for many years.

ruiz fought plenty of fast strong dudes and no one hurt him..

haye ain't no roy jones, the only counters haye is gonna land are kisses on ruiz's cheeks whiole the flail around in a long sweaty man-embrace.
